Head of PKB, Daniel Johan, appreciated the PDIP’s desire in partnering for the 2024 Jakarta Governor election.

“Eriko’s offer is intriguing,” stated Huda at the Parliament Complex, Senayan, Jakarta, on Wednesday. According to Huda, the possibility of PKB forming a coalition with PDIP in Jakarta is open if PDIP is ready to take the deputy governor for Anies and if PKS fails to find a coalition partner in the Jakarta Pilkada. “It’s possible that PKB, with PDIP as the deputy, could happen if PKS fails to form a coalition,” clarified Huda.

One proposal is to support Anies Baswedan in the forthcoming election in November 2024. “Regarding our partners at PDIP, we are very receptive to working with PDIP and all parties, not just in DKI, but in different areas as well,” said Daniel Johan in Jakarta on Saturday. On this occasion, PKB, along with the former Jakarta governor, already holds the same vision and goals for the Jakarta Pilkada. Therefore, it’s just a matter of time before the party led by Muhaimin Iskandar, publicly endorses Anies.

So, the formal declaration is just a minor technicality. The main point is we are sharing the same vision. Now, we just wait for the formal announcement,” said Johan. “As for the running mate, that’s up to the Pilkada team to determine, refining everything to a team, including the deputy. We await the Pilkada desk’s statement,” he ended.

PKB Jakarta proposes the duo of Anies Baswedan and the Chairman of the DKI Jakarta Regional House of Representatives (DPRD) as well as a politician from the Indonesian Democratic Party of Struggle (PDIP), Prasetyo Edi Marsudi, for the 2024 Jakarta Pilkada. Besides Prasetyo Edi, Hasbiallah mentioned that Anies could also be paired with the Chairman of the Indonesian Solidarity Party (PSI) Kaesang Pangarep or the Acting (Pj) Governor of DKI Jakarta, Heru Budi Hartono.

“PKS has the Chairman of DPRD DKI. They can’t take the deputy governor position too. I think Anies-Pras is ideal,” he stated. Moreover, he added, the relationship between Anies Baswedan and Prasetyo has been established since Anies served as the governor of Jakarta from 2017 to 2022. Furthermore, Hasbiallah hopes that communication between PKB and PDIP can be established quickly so that the deputy governor position for Anies can be finalized.

The meeting addressed economic inflation and the 2024 local elections (Pilkada). “Oh yes, during a meeting of party leaders, they talk about many things. But what we talked about was inflation. We also discussed the Pilkada,” Zulhas told reporters at the Complex of the Presidential Palace in Jakarta, on June 14, 2024. Zulkifli Hasan said he proposed the former Governor of West Java, Ridwan Kamil, to be nominated for the 2023 Jakarta Pilkada. According to him, the suggestion was agreed upon by the party leaders present at the meeting. “Yes, I suggested Ridwan Kamil for Jakarta, and everyone agreed,” he stated. When asked whether Kaesang might accompany Ridwan Kamil in the 2024 Jakarta Pilkada, Zulkifli Hasan said that it had not been decided yet. However, he noted that the party leaders needed Kaesang to secure the Pilkada. “Yes, I believe so. I reported at that time to the President whether Kaesang could. The President responded, ‘No’. But the parties need him,” he said. “Yes, but the parties need him. For what? To win,” continued. He believes that Ridwan Kamil wouldn’t have an issue with whoever runs with him in the 2024 Jakarta Pilkada, as long as it brings victory. Zulhas stated that Ridwan Kamil’s deputy would be decided by the party leaders. “Mr. RK (Ridwan Kamil) is fine with anyone as long as they ensure victory. As long as they secure victory, we will discuss,” noted Zulhas.

Previously, PDIP DPP Chairperson Mr. Sotarduga proposed that if their party partners with PKB to nominate Anies Baswedan in the Jakarta Pilkada, they would offer the gubernatorial seat in East Java to PDIP. “For example, in Jakarta, if PKB becomes the gubernatorial candidate, can PDIP be the gubernatorial candidate in East Java? Of course, it’s not a barter, but that’s what cooperation means, we can’t achieve everything on our own, we must work together,” said Eriko at the Parliament Complex, Senayan, Jakarta, on June 25, 2024.

Secretary-General of the National Mandate Party (PAN) Eddy Soeparno said that the Advanced Indonesia Coalition (KIM) decided to support the same candidate in several regions participating in the 2024 Simultaneous Pilkada. “We stated from the beginning that the Advanced Indonesia Coalition, especially for the DKI Pilkada, we would agree to support a uniform candidate pair, and

**PKS Does Not Want to Be Just a Ronin** Political analyst Adi Prayitno assesses that PKS’s decision to nominate its cadre is understandable, given that in the 2017 Jakarta Pilkada, PKS could only nominate candidates from other parties. “Even the deputy gubernatorial position left by Sandiaga Uno, which should have been PKS’s share, was also willingly given to Gerindra,” stated Adi. Therefore, Adi believes that in this Jakarta Pilkada, PKS does not want to continue being a supporter of other parties’ cadres. PKS wants to be a deciding party. Especially with the label as the winner of the legislative elections in Jakarta. “As the winning party in the legislative elections, PKS certainly does not want to continue being a ronin. PKS does not want to be merely political firewood for nominating candidates, but to have a PKS cadre as governor or deputy governor,” said Adi. “This time, PKS wants to appear as a leader candidate. As the main actor in winning, and as a figure who can secure Jakarta 1 or Jakarta 2. That’s the point,” stated Adi.
